2019 vs 2018 Chevy Silverado – Should You Buy a New Truck?

If you are considering a pickup truck, you are likely considering a 2019 or 2018 Chevy Silverado. Before making any major purchase decision, it is best to do as much research as possible. Note that Labor Day and Veteran’s Day weekend offer some of the best sales opportunities. You will be able to likely get some extremely low financing and even $10,000 off during the holiday sales events. Keep this in mind before going to a Chevy dealership and paying the sticker price.

There are a few changes with the 2019 Silverado but the most notable are the trims.

“Eight trims are offered on this year’s Silverado, but some get replaced with new options in the 2019 model. New trims include the LT Silverado Trail Boss, RST, and Custom Trail Boss. Trail Boss models are equipped with off-road equipment, including a specially tuned suspension, greater ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and skid plates. The RST shows off sporty looks with body-color trim, LED lighting, and available 22-inch wheels. ”

In 2018 and 2019 you can expect to see Silverado trucks that are in excess of $50,000 on car lots. With this much money being spent, there is no reason to feel as if you are obligated to buy a specific truck. Many car salesmen and saleswomen will try to make you feel guilty for not buying a truck from them. They will make you think they have put in all this hard work to find the right truck for you yet you are not going to make a purchase. Do not fall for this ploy. It happens every day and you have no reason to feel bad. Their job is to find a truck for you. Your job is not to buy a vehicle from them.

If you feel somewhat apprehensive about making a purchase, just walk away. You can always go back. Do not fall for the trick that the truck will be gone the next time you visit a car dealership. They can always find you the same truck somewhere else if they sell that particular truck. There is no reason to be pressured into buying a 2019 Chevy Silverado. You may also consider a used Chevy truck as you can save quite a bit of money buying a used vehicle.
